The reinforcements are quite a topic for Colo Colo fans in each transfer market, since they are a kind of light of hope to give that leap in quality that we have been waiting for so many years, especially internationally.
However, the Cacique has gotten used to choosing players who end up contributing very little to the first team, especially in the process of Marcelo Espina as sports manager, who proved not to widen when bringing reinforcements to the Monumental.
This was the case of this first half of 2020, where six new players arrived who, frankly, ended up being a scant contribution to the aspirations that the Cacique had at the beginning of the season: fight for the title and qualify in the Copa Libertadores.
The new faces at the beginning of this year were Miguel Pinto, Brayan Vejar (who returned from his loan in Palestino), César Fuentes, Leonardo Valencia, Matías Fernández and Nicolás Blandi, none of them could make the differences that the Colo Colo shirt demands so much.
In goal Miguel Pinto has not been a reliable answer before the doubts that he has left Brayan Cortes. For his part, in defense, Brayan Vejar he had a hard time winning a starting jerseyOnly in the last stage of the year and as a result of the injuries of his teammates did he manage to continue.
In midfield the situation does not improve. César Fuentes has been the one who has added the most minutes, but without making big differences in the midfield. Leonardo Valencia, He arrived as a great figure and although he started scoring goals, could never show the game which led him to Brazilian soccer. Matías Fernández, He returned to Colo Colo with the illusion of recalling his great performances in Macul. However, the injuries did not allow him to have the expected continuity. In the last stage of the tournament, he has taken a more active role, having great football passages.

Up front is the great disappointment of the season, since Nicolás Blandi has only converted two goals in 12 games played, being that it was the great price of the season.
Finally there are the reinforcements of the urgency. The fact of being in the last place of the table led the leadership to strengthen the squad. Maximiliano Falcón, arrived after the injury of Matías Zaldivia, and from his first game he became the undisputed starter. Undoubtedly, the Uruguayan is the great reinforcement of 2020 in the popular cast. Pablo Solari It is the great bet of Gustavo Quinteros, debuted against Huachipato and showed more desire than football. Ignacio Jara, showed a tremendous attitude to take the Cacique, but their performances have been rare. Finally, Jorge Valdivia, He made his debut against UC and is the great illusion of the fans to leave the bottom of the table.
